Well me being me a paranoid freak,I however do believe that in the last 24 hrs even though I drank yesterday , am definitely feeling 100% better ,and when I feel better I have to write about it or what's the point. In the last 9 days I thought I was slowly dying , little did I know this is pregablin withdrawals, I stupidly played about with them for 7 week s indeed even in prison I tried them and also last year so it's not like I'm blind to them but the side effects and withdrawals are something else I've had confusion, forgetfulness,foggybrain,sheer depression,fear,insomnia u name it ,so I'm not jumping the gun but today is like I've came alive5 hrs sleep too so I pray it continues, as I say not getting too cocky ok, one love jay

yeah... I just read this:

Do not stop taking this medicine (pregabalin capsules) all of a sudden without calling your doctor. You may have a greater risk of side effects. If you need to stop this medicine (pregabalin capsules), you will want to slowly stop it as ordered by your doctor.

Avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medicine (pregabalin capsules).

geezzzz.... your doc. should have at least helped you out with the withdrawals....like prescribed something to help you.... it doesn't have to be another addictive drug.... but something.... boy... that's tough love man..... hang in there... you know the drill... try gingerale for nausea, crackers to soak up acid in your tummy... and when you can drink something.... see about getting some gatorade kind of drink to replace your electrolytes.
